Product Review: Smashbox Studio Skin 15 Hour Wear Hydrating Foundation SPF 10

My makeup routine is pretty simple—tinted moisturizer, concealer, blush, a little brow, liner, mascara and lip. I can practically do it with my eyes closed, while driving, and during other various assorted activities which shall remain nameless.

When I want to really spiff it up however, I kick my makeup up a notch by using foundation. I’m proud that I take care of my skin, so I’m not in need of foundation, but foundation is a  must-have when I need to look flawless. When in the presence of cameras with flashes popping off, I my fab factor depends of of being finished with an amazing foundation.

I have recently been all over Smashbox Studio Skin 15 Hour Wear Hydrating Foundation SPF 10 . I even find myself wanting to “cheat” with it on no-foundation days.  

Before I reveal my level of love for this face-fixer foundation, here are the deets about Studio Skin 15 Hour Wear Hydrating Foundation SPF 10. 

Hot studio lights usually mean lots of complexion touch-ups-but not anymore! Stay picture-perfect for a full 15 hours with our breakthrough long-wearing formula, developed to withstand intense on-set conditions. Skin is hydrated and shine-free, while imperfections are blurred with light-diffusing spheres. • Buildable medium-to-full coverage• Water, sweat, humidity and transfer resistant • Oil-free, and helps control oil

When applying foundation, always start in the center of the face (around and on the nose). This is where skin tends to be most discolored, so a little extra care here will help even out your complexion.

My results:

For a liquid foundation, Smashbox Studio Skin 15 Hour Wear Hydrating Foundation SPF 10 is amazingly light, yet covers like one of it's denser counterparts.  I don't  want to look like I am wearing a full coverage foundation, so Studio Skin is the perfect choice.  My color is 3.4—Medium Golden Beige.

The coverage is significant, even when applying with a light hand. For areas that need more coverage, Skin Studio is quite buildable.  I saw my skin looking amazingly "even" without looking made up.  My under eye circles were practically obliterated with this foundation.  I love the glass bottle, it feesl a tad more luxuriant than a plastic bottle, and the pump dispenses just the right amount of foundation for a full-face.

(If you are only spot using this foundation, a half pump is plenty)

The claim for Smashbox Studio Skin 15 Hour Wear Hydrating Foundation SPF 10 is that it wears well under the most brutal circumstances—hot lights, long hours, humidity and more.  Even oily skin is no sweat with this foundation.  So, I wore it all day.  And almost all night.  At the end of the night, my face and skin still looked like my makeup had just been applied. 

I have also used this foundation on photoshoots and it works incredibly well.  I'm sold. Smashbox Studio Skin 15 Hour Wear Hydrating Foundation SPF 10 is a 5 Bling Foundation.
